CPython adds a hard to avoid hardcoded link flag to look for a debug
libpython. This results in a very puzzling error, so emit a warning
with a clear message. Note that pybind11 has a workaround for this,
which undefines `_DEBUG`. So users who use only pybind11 can use
non-release buildtypes, but they won't get debug symbols on Windows
unless they have a debug build.
If the dependency permits it, we can just do a PATH search instead of
mandating that it be listed in the cross file. This is useful for the
limited case where a specific dependency is known to be compatible with
any machine choice.
Mark the pybind11 dependency as supporting this. It's a valid choice
because pybind11 is a header-only C++ library.
In #11761 it turned out that we failed to correctly handle all
compiler.sizeof API changes in an old commit, breaking use of the
module. And mypy could have caught this for us, except that the module
is neither typed nor checked in CI. Partially solve this by adding lots
of type annotations, greatly reducing the number of mypy errors in this
file from 35 down to 12.
This doesn't accept a dict, only an actual ConfigurationData object. Due
to the way we poke at it, a dict can sort of work anyway, but might not
if the internal layout isn't exactly correct. This is evidenced by the
way we make the dict values be hard-to-read tuples containing emptiness,
because that's how ConfigurationData objects handle descriptions.
Simplify and make the seed dictionary readable, then actually convert it
into a real ConfigurationData. Bonus: this now passes type checking.
It's shorter and more descriptive. Although we always enforce the same
rules either way, a unified decorator is one less line of code for each
location, and also tells you how many "too few" arguments you *did*
pass.
For all source `*.py` files installed via either py.install_sources() or
an `install_dir: py.get_install_dir()`, produce `*.pyc` files at install
time. Controllable via a module option.
We may want to do things like update install scripts as well, which have
to happen before generating the backend. Instead of adding one module
method per thing to do, use a single function that allows for modifying
the Build object directly.
This is useful for internal scripts that want to know about something
other than MESON_INSTALL_PREFIX and MESON_INSTALL_DESTDIR_PREFIX, which
is very specific to the prefix.
In commit 808d5934dd, compiler.sizeof was
refactored to introduce caching, but cmake subprojects did not adapt to
that API change and ended up embedding the python repr of a tuple as a
cmake variable.
patch on Windows is provided by MSYS, which only understands POSIX
paths, with `/`. Using Windows paths with `\` results in a "file not
found" error.
We got a little lucky here because the path is relative, so the drive
letter difference doesn't affect us.
MIPS64 can run MIPS32 code natively, so there is a chance that a mixture
of MIPS64 kernel and MIPS32 userland exists. Before this Meson just
treats such mixture as mips64, because uname -m returns mips64.
So in this case we have to check compiler builtin defines for actual
architecture and CPU in use.
- Also fixes mips64 related detection tests in internaltests:
Normalize mips64 as mips first, then if __mips64 is defined, return
mips64 for mips64* machines.
This is a bit confiusing because normally one would detect if a flag
of 32-bit target is defined while running on a 64-bit machine. For
mips64 it is almost just the other way around - we need to detect if
__mips64 is set to make sure it is a mips64 environment.

Replace illegal characters when reading gtest generated xml file,
to prevent a ParseError and a stacktrace.
catch et.ParseError, just in case, to prevent stopping other tests
if the xml file was malformed.
On Windows, the SDL2 library is generally provided with only CMake config
files. This commit allows meson to fallback on CMake as a last resort to
find the SDL2 library.
import('python').find_installation('python').version() causes exception
because of a missing initialization, when `find_installation()` receives
a name or a path.
This allows changing the crate name with which a library ends up being
available inside the Rust code, similar to cargo's dependency renaming
feature or `extern crate foo as bar` inside Rust code.
Rust has a `debug_assert!()` macro, which is designed to be toggled on
the command line. It is on by default in debug builds, and off by
default in release builds, in cargo. This matches what meson's b_ndebug
option does in `if-release` mode.
C like compilers only off `-DNDEBUG` to disable asserts. This is not a
universal paradigm however. Rust, for example has an argument that takes
a boolean. To better represent this, we allow passing a `disable`
boolean. `disable` was chosen rather than `enable` because it allowed
all existing logic to be left in place
This will help with the writing of tools to generate
VisualStudio project and solution files, and possibly
for other IDEs as well.
- Used compilers a about `host`, `build` and `target` machines
arere listed in `intro-compilers.json`
- Informations lister in `intro-machines.json`
- `intro-dependencies.json` now includes internal dependencies,
and relations between dependencies.
- `intro-targets.json` now includes dependencies, `vs_module_defs`,
`win_subsystem`, and linker parameters.
The library names are directly mapped to filenames by meson while the
crate name gets spaces/dashes replaced by underscores. This works fine
to a certain degree except that rustc expects a certain filename scheme
for rlibs that matches the crate name.
When using such a library as a dependency of a dependency compilation
will fail with a confusing error message.

If the optional first "mainlib" argument is there, then we infer several
values. Otherwise, some of those values fall back to a generic default,
and two of them -- name and description -- fall back to being mandatory.
In commit e84f293f67, we removed
validation for description as part of refactoring that never actually
validated anything.
Checking the executable basename sort of works, at least for Windows,
since Windows always happens to use exactly this approach. However, the
official pyinstaller documentation suggests a very different approach:
https://pyinstaller.org/en/stable/runtime-information.html
This approach is more robust since it works on any OS, and in particular
it allows me to test the PyInstaller bundle functionality on Linux, even
though we don't officially distribute it as such.
Running some container-like mechanisms such as chroot(1) from sudo, can
result in a new isolated environment where the environment variables
exist but no users exist. From there, a build is performed as root but
installation fails when we try to look up the passwd database entry for
the user outside of the chroot.
Proper container mechanisms such as systemd-nspawn, and even improper
ones like docker, sanitize this and ensure those stale environment
variables don't exist anymore. But chroot is very low-level.
Avoid crashing when this happens.
Fixes#11662
A user might run `sudo somewrapper` to build and install something with
meson, and it is not actually possible to drop privileges and build,
since the build directory is also owned by root.
A common case of this is `sudo pip install` for projects using
meson-python or other python build-backends that wrap around meson.
Fixes#11665
